Target
-
Function
Mediates the formation of prostaglandins from arachidonate. May have a role as a major mediator of inflammation and/or a role for prostanoid signaling in activity-dependent plasticity. -
Pathway
Lipid metabolism; prostaglandin biosynthesis. -
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the prostaglandin G/H synthase family.
Contains 1 EGF-like domain. -
Post-translational
modificationsS-nitrosylation by NOS2 (iNOS) activates enzme activity. S-nitrosylation may take place on different Cys residues in addition to Cys-561. -
Cellular localization
Microsome membrane. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane. - Information by UniProt

Immunocytochemistry/immunofluorescence analysis of U-87 MG (human glioblastoma-astrocytoma epithelial cell) labelling COX2 with ab225273 at 10 µg/mL. Cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde and permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100. Cells were counterstained with Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody - Microtubule Marker (Alexa Fluor® 448) (ab195887) at 1/200 dilution (red). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (blue). MCF7 (human breast adenocarcinoma epithelial cell) was used as a negative control.

IHC image of COX2 / Cyclooxygenase 2 staining in a section of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded normal human colon*.
The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate buffer (pH6, epitope retrieval solution 1) for 20mins performed on a Leica BOND™. Non-specific protein-protein interactions were then blocked in TBS containing 0.025% (v/v) Triton X-100, 0.3M (w/v) glycine and 1% (w/v) BSA for 1h at room temperature. The section was then incubated overnight at +4°C in TBS containing 0.025% (v/v) Triton X-100 and 1% (w/v) BSA with ab225273 at 1/100 dilution (shown in red) and counterstained using ab195887, Mouse monoclonal to alpha Tubulin (Alexa Fluor® 488), at 1/250 dilution (shown in green). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue). The section was then mounted using Fluoromount®.
Image was taken with a confocal microscope (Leica-Microsystems, TCS SP8).
For other IHC staining systems (automated and non-automated), customers should optimize variable parameters such as antigen retrieval conditions, antibody concentrations and incubation times.
